The Privacy Checkup is an interactive questionnaire that uses everyday examples to show what consequences your online behavior has in regard to privacy and how to protect your data.

How are results calculated? The calculation is based on two categories: privacy and security. Each answer therefore has two values. For example, if an answer is particularly relevant for privacy but less so for security, it will have three points for privacy and one for security. If an answer is unfavorable from both a privacy and a security perspective, it will have zero points for both. The points are then added up, weighted, and combined to create a single percentage.

On completing the Privacy Checkup, your Checkup Report will explain a list of steps you can take to protect your privacy even better, as well as software recommendations that fulfill strict requirements.

The Privacy Checkup was developed by the Privacy Training project to celebrate Data Privacy Week and is independently supported by Threema. Data Privacy Week, which we started off by publishing an open letter on the topic of the proposed EU chat control, will be rounded off on January 28, 2024, with the Data Privacy Day. This annual event was initiated by the European Council to raise awareness for online privacy.

This seems less of a privacy checkup and more of a "this is how to browse privately" like all the questions are common sense but things your everyday person is just going to take the easy way out on

I also especially give you an example of a public area there is no expectation for privacy and then say that you need to be careful of how you photograph in that area as people expect privacy, like what lol, don't go to a public setting and expect privacy, like I won't intentionally have you in a picture but if it happens it happens. I didn't know there was any countries that treated that differently
